Question

Are plant cells eukaryotic?

Answer 1

Hint: Plant cells are the functional unit of plants and are composed of organelles to perform different cellular activities. They consist of a cell wall that is made up of cellulose.

Complete answer:
A plant cell is eukaryotic due to the presence of membrane-bound organelles and a well-defined nucleus in it. A cell wall is present around the plant cell which is involved in providing the shape of the plant cell. The plant cell is differentiated with many factors and one of the distinctive features of the plant cell is the presence of the outer cell wall around the cell membrane. It is rectangular and is larger than the animal cell and is composed of cell organelle for performing different functions. The cells of a mature and higher plant become specialised for performing certain functions which are essential for the survival of the cell of the plant and are involved in transportation for the nutrients and water and storing food.
Chloroplast and a large central vacuole are the organelles that are present in plant cells which include plastics and the chloroplast are responsible for providing the green pigment to perform the process of photosynthesis. Cellulose is the component for the cell wall which is a polymer of several glucose molecules and is long and linear. plant cells are specialised for the process of photosynthesis in which the plants make their food by the use of sunlight, carbon dioxide and water. They produce energy in the form of ATP during this process and help in transporting the water and nutrients from roots to different parts of the leaves.

Note:
Eukaryotic cells are larger as compared to prokaryotic cells and consist of rod-shaped chromosomes within the membrane-bound organelles which is known as a true nucleus. The nucleus consists of the DNA which is responsible for the synthesis of proteins and ribosomes.
